Default Give us the whole Enchilada!

I love seeing all the great finds here. Heck, everyone does. But what we love as much is the great stroy's that go with digging that great find. You know; "there I was facing down the charging bull, standing over the hole I dug", or, I had to hike up hill both ways in 2 foot snow to get to the site where I found it, or, the spam was so thick you couldn't cut it with a Ginsu. Tell us how you found the site, a little history about the place, and what led up to making that great find. We love it!! So bring on spring and bring on the good post about those great finds!

The stories are greater than the finds. They last forever!
